They are big on healthcare, entertainment (country music) and car manufacturing (Nissan). AllianceBernstein just relocated from NYC. They now also have some tech (operations roles). It’s a good place to grow a life but not sure I’d move there for a hot career trajectory. You can certainly find a good job and have a good life there but I wouldn’t move there before you figure out your job situation. I went to Vanderbilt there.

Thanks for the feedback! Highly appreciated especially since you went to school there and know the market 😁.. initially if I go there I can keep my job and be remote, but thinking about what could be next in a year or two, or if I wanted a hybrid role instead of fully remote.

I’m hoping someone might have some ideas about this- I’m currently five years out of law school with a clerkship, a tax LLM, 3 years of experience doing transactional tax work and a few months of EC/VC experience (which I recently switched to from tax). I like the EC/VC work, but I don’t know how long I want to stay in biglaw. Can anyone weigh in on how employers for in-house roles might look at my experience in a year or two?

Hi fishies! Considering an internal big 4 move from Western Europe to Dubai. Not sure about WLB and whether there’ll be enough growth and learning opportunities after reading some of the threads here. Anyone up for sharing their experience? Especially concerned about sexism / racism as a WOC…and whether moving back to Europe in a few years will be difficult because the ME experience won’t be considered valuable.

My question is those currently in an HR role, would this move make sense to you?
